André Alphonse Toussaint Wormser (1 November 1851 – 4 November 1926) was a French banker and Romantic composer.

Life and career

André Wormser was born in Paris and studied with Antoine Marmontel and François Bazin at the Paris Conservatoire.[1] He married Olga née Boris, and the couple had four children, Diane, Sabine, Dominique and Olivier, all featured in a 1926 portrait Madame André Wormser and her Children by Édouard Vuillard.[2] As a very wealthy man, Wormser was able to afford a membership in the social club Cercle artistique et littéraire.[3]

In 1872 Wormser won the Premier Prix in piano at the Paris Conservatoire,[4] and in 1875 he won the Prix de Rome for his cantata Clytemnestre. He is best known for the pantomime L'Enfant prodigue (1890),[5] which was revived at the Booth Theater in New York in 1916 as the three-act play Perroit the Prodigal.[6] He died in Paris.

Notable students include Charles Malherbe.

Works

  • L'Étoile, Ballet-pantomime en deux actes (31 May 1897, chor. Joseph Hansen, Paris Opera)
